BUTTINSKEYS AT A BANQUET
Aaaaal Dinner of the CIsb F.ajoyed
by Membership to the Fall
Eateat.
Last evening the "Buttlnskey" club gave
Its first annual dinner at the Henshaw. If
ths wishes of those who attended be car
ried out the club will hereafter give an an
nual dinner as often as once a week. It
was one of the most successful Informal
affairs at which good fellows ever tnet, and
was so voted by all on dispersing.
The "Buttlnskey" club Is a little organisa
tion of business men who customarily lunch
together, and who have made a practice to
dispense with all formality during at least
the one hour, from 12 to L each day, and,
remembering that they sre busy men In a
world that has Its own cares, during that
hour they cease to trouble themselves about
business worries and try to help each other
to forget.
Sixteen sat down last ntght ip a carefully
appointed menu that was faultlessly served,
and which was marked by a number of
pleasant little surprises. When each had
rally folded his napkin and lighted his
cigar and that wasn't so readily done.
either Toastmaster Edgar Allen gave
everybody a chance to say something. Most
of the talks were expended In felicitating
Mr. Buttlnskey himself, who had arrived a
little after the feast had started, and In
expressing the delight that had been af
forded each and all by the circumstances
nder which they haj met and the Inci
dents that had marked the progress of the
several courses. To those wKo have at
tended at the Den of Ak-Par-Ben It Is ex
planation enough to say that Walter Jar-
dine and Augustus H. Renie devised the
several little affairs by which the gustatory
process was expedited, while Mat Collins
and Frsnk Dunlop manipulated an ar
rangement that was productive of Joy to
fhem If to no one else.
Before the session had been declared ad
journed Councilman Dave O'Brien told of
the hunting trip he, Collins and Dunlop
made up along the "High Line" last fall.
It was chickens they wrre Bfter. and on
the first day out they didn't see many, and
didn't shoot any. for they had no dogs.
Dunlop distinguished himself by his mns-
terly marksmanship, missing an easy shot.
although he tried both barrels. On the re-
urn to the ranch they determined not to
go out the next morning without the dogs.
O'Brien says he was up the next morning
bright and early, with his hunting clothes
on, looking like the real article, and try
ing to hold his gun as If he was used to
earn ing one. when Dunlop espied him.
"Hey, there, Irish!" called Dun'an,
where are you going with that gun? Bring
It back here and leave It In the kitchen.
Tou won't need It today, for we're going
to have the dogs to hunt with."
Those who sat down together shortly
after ( and left the board a little after t
were:. waiter Jardlne, vice president:
Frank H. Dunlop. secretary: Edgar Allen.
James O. Martin. George F. Thomas. D. J.
O'Brien. M. H. Collins, Elliott D. Evans.

SORENSON NEEDS CLOTHING
Gives His Own Away and Stolen Gar-
meats Are Takea Away
from Hlsa.
Solomon In all his glad garments waa
not arrayed like Louis Sorenson when ar
rested on Sixteenth street last evening by
Detectives Heltfeld snd Donahue on a
charge of burglary and grand larceny.'
Sorenson Is charged with entering the
apartment of Annie Braoj conk at the
Pratt boarding house, 212 South Twenty-
fifth street, yesterday afternoon by climb
ing through a window and with break
ing open the woman's trunk and taking
therefrom SSI and a gold watch.
Sorenson then fitted himself out with new
shoes, clothes and ha' In fact, every
thing he had on, except his socks, waa
brand new when he was brought to the
police station. The old suit of brown In
which hs had been seen a few hours be
fore the robbery was given to a poor Dane,
so Sorenson said. He said he felt sorry
for the poor man.
At the police station Sorenson was di
vested of the garments whldh had been
purchased with the stolen money. Then
the matte. of finding suitable raiment for
the garroentless man waa a proposition
to ths police department. Sorenson Is a
small man and would not have looked
becoming In an old policeman's salt that
might have been found around the station.
Dan Baldwin offered one of his gymnasium
suits and Jim Kirk had a spare blanket.
which was offered until a suit could be
found for the man. A suit was eventually
secured and given to him.
Sorenson has been employed for several
months at the Pratt boarding house as
yardman and left a few days ago. A por
tion of the money waa recovered when
Sorenson was searched at the police sta
tion.

Cora.
CHICAGO, Jan. I. Heavy liquidation due
to more peaceful nens from the far east
resulted In a severe setback to wheat prices
today. May wheat closed l'afelc below
last night s figures. May corn is down
SuSc. and oats f0c. Provisions are luc
to lower.
Before trading began reports Indicated
that another eflort would be made to avert
hostilities over Corea. British consols
showed an advance, while foreign grain
markets reported declines. There was con
siderable wheal fur sale here at the start
and May was Vj c to V7Tc lower, at
IseVu&'C. A little aupport from the lead
ing longs sent May up to 87(jjtf7Hc, but of
ferings weie so liberal that the demand
from that source was soon satisfied and the
market eased off again. Later in the day
the big bull operator became an open seller
and prices slumped badly, May declining to
6iS?N''c. '1 he domestic situation was con-
siuerably bearish, a large Increase in tne
vlsihle supply being expected for Monday.
Receipts were large and the cash demand
slow. Covering iy i-borta caused some
recovery late In the day. but the sentiment
continued weak, and May closed at 0c.
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
to aii.JuO bu. Primary receipts, 845, ooO,
against 6uG,4"0 a year ago. Minneapolis, Du
lulh and Chicago reported receipts of 672
cars, sgainst bU cars last week and 427 cars
a year ago.
Corn was comparatively firm early In the
day, owing to small receipts and the poor
Quality of the corn coming in. together with
the higher Liverpool markets. With the
big decline in wheat the corn market was
dragged down in sympathy. Offerings, how
ever, were not Urge and came mostly from
small holders. May opened Sc to c lower,
at 47'0-t7i4c, and after selling at 47iC
the price declined to 46c. closing at 46:
47c. Local receipts were 365 cars, with one
of contract grade.
Oats weakened along with wheat, but
there waa not much enthusiasm on the
short side for the reason that the big
line held by the leading bulls Is still Intact.
The improvement in the shipping demand
also tended to restrict orterlngs. May
opened Hjic to c lower, at 894'a39c to
S-tc, sold between 39Vc and 3S"i.ic. clos
ing at 394c. Local receipts were nineteen
cars.
'Provisions were weak. Influenced at the
start by a decline in the price of hogs, and
later by the alump in grains. The selling
was quite general and aa prices declined
stop-loss orders were reached, which in
creased the weakness. May pork closed
30c lower st 112.80, May lard was off 12,c,
at $6.90, snd ribs were down loc, at fci.Wn.
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat.
2B cars: corn, f6 cars; oats, 119 cars; bogs,

CATTLE The same as Is generally the
case on a Saturday, there were not enougli
cattle ottered to make a market. For tne
week receipts show a gain over last week
amounting to about 6.000 head, but as com
pared with tha same week of last year,
there is but little change.
Cornfed steers have been In fairly liberal
supply all the week. The demand, how
ever, was very brisk the first of the week
Vrt.i "It,:" l:"c.e' "Fry:?.- "2
and oa a result-they pounded the market
;QrT" : "L.r.' ?" rv.T-,r.:
the same position It was at the close of Iat
week. Shorlfed cattle are quotable from
$3.76 to $4.25, fair to good from $4.40 tS $4.75
and well finished cattle sell from that up
to $5, or even a little better.
The cow market waa also active and
strong the first twirt of the week, but the
same as steers, cased off a little on Friday.
The choice grades may be a trifle stronger
than they were a week ago. but still there
Is hardly enough change to be worthy of
mention. Other kinds sre quotably steady.
Canners and outters are selling trom $1.33
to $2.50. fair to good grades from $2.6u to
$3.0o snd good to choice from $3.50 to $3 85
and something strictly prime might sell
c en a lime nigner.
Bulls have been In eood demand sit h
week and have advanced considerably. Bo
logna grades sell from $2.50 to $3.0ii. fair to
food from 13.00 to 33.50 and good to cluilce
rom $3.50 to $3.S5. Veal calves are abiut
a quarter higher for the week, best grades
now selling around $5.25, or even a little
better.
Blockers and feeders have been In small
supply an the week and with a lair de
mand the market has advanced 16025c
The commoner kinds are selling from $3 23
down, fair to good from $3.25 to 33.6J and

HOGS There was a small sunnlv nf v,on
on sale this morning and aa packers all
wanted a few the market opened fairly ac
tive and strong to 5c higher. The advance
however, was very largely confined to the
heavier weights and the light stuff was
neglected the same as usual and left umii
the last. Later In the morning reports from
Limnsci were very unravoranie to the Ber
ing Interests and the market here as a re
sult closed slow and weak. Good weight
hogs sold largely from $4. 65 to 34.70. mixed
from $4 00 to $4.65 and light stuff from 34.55
down. In spite of the slow close practically
everything was out of first hands In fairly
For the week receipts of hoe-, show
slight decrease aa compared with last week,
nut mere is a email increase over the cor
responding week of last year. On Monday
of this wek there was a sharp advance in
prices, theaverage of all the hogs amount
ing to $4.,o. Since that time, however, the
genera, rennencv or prices nas been down
want so that rie nrivanc of fnrlrl,v v.
fern about lost, although today's advance
leaves tne maraei juai a snane nigner than
it was a week ago today. Representative

SHEEP-There were sbout seven cars of
sheep snd lambs on sale this rooming and
the market eould safely be Quoted sternly
and active. Some Colorado Mexican year
linga .old as high as 35. which Is the ton
price of the season ot date. A bunch of
lambs sold for SVSO. which was also a fully
steady price. Everything offered sold lo
good sesson.
For the week receipts have been very
liberal, as there is a gain over last week
amounting to abc.'it l0.i head, and as com
pared with the corresponding week of last
year the gain amounts to sbout Mono head.
The demand, however, has been fully eo.ua!
to the supply, and as a result prices show
a sharp advance. Anything at all desirable
in the way of killers can safely be quoted
a quarter higher. Handy weights sre in
the best demand snd naturally show the
greatest advance. Some of the less de
sirable grades are probably no more than
ISc higher for the week, but the grneraj
market on anvthlng decent Is right around
a quarter higher
Feeders have been In small supply and
ss there has been quite s demand from
the cotintry prices have advanced even
niore than on Killers, feeder lambs, for
example, are se'.llng sll the way from 34
to i and sheep and yearbngs have shown
a corresponding gain.
